What Internship Looks Like V

My Pediatric white coat is made of thick cotton and is so long that is comes below my knees. It has big knotted buttons--very official looking. Unfortunately, it fits so well that the button closure at the back made it too small. So my fantastic mother put a couple darts in the back, tacked down the flaps, and adorned them with these silver knot buttons I picked out. I probably won't wear it very much, but when I do, I will look classy.

My pair of white coats for Internal Medicine are shorter and thinner and will get a lot more use. The strap around the back was too large, so my mother took them in and decorated them with ladybug buttons to bring a bit of whimsy to the adult floors.

The blog title names my three main roles and goals in life: as a woman/wife (Frau), as a PhD in German history (Doktor), and as a future complex care specialist (Doctor). I write these posts to amuse myself. If they amuse you, too, please leave a comment!

Who I Am

I am a medical historian, a combined Medicine-Pediatrics resident, a practicing Christian, a sports fan, a one-time blues and swing dancer, and always interested in critical thinking and intelligent conversation.
